The other way is to prepare yourself a pack of swatches for products you have. Instead mixing colors directly on work try firs how they look together. In the video I'm showing my testing backgrounds and below you will find quick recipe for background.

The other way is to fit existing color palete on your photo or on main elements on your work.Dopasowuje paletę do kolorów zdjęcia.

I decided that I need fluo green so I made it in a small mister from pastel yellow and little bit of turquoise .
Postanowiłam dodać kolor fluo i zmajstrowałam sobie zielony z chalk yellow z odrobinką turkusu.

During the video I was showing two backgrounds. Here you can see them. I turned one of them into fall decor with some dried nature elementsW trakcie video pokazuje też dwa tła na blejtramach . Jedno z nich przerobiłam na jesienny dekor z zasuszonymi gałązkami.

We have an announcement to make about a new member our team. Unfortunately Nupur Patel will not be joining us due to personal matters, but we have invited another AMAZING artist and talented Australian designer Jacqueline Moore.

Welcome Jacqueline :)

Hi!!!! My name is Jacqueline and I'm a 25 year old, Stay at
Home Mommy to an adorable 3 year old boy named Jet. We live in Perth Western
Australia. I have been scrapbooking for around 7 years now, however it has only
been since my Son was born that I really started to get into it. I love working
with mixed-media, bright colors, lots of layers, dimension, and distressed
edges!!! I mostly create layouts, though on occasion I will put together a
card, layout, mini-album or some other OTP project. My Son is definitely my
biggest inspiration when creating, though I am occasionally inspired by the
most unexpected things. At the moment all my creations are made in our backyard
under the patio as there isn't enough space inside. I actually really enjoy it,
particularly in summer.

I am so grateful to Aida for giving me the opportunity to become part of such a
wonderful, talented team and for the chance to work with such amazing products
here at 13 @rts. It really is a dream come true!! You can find my creations on
my blog

Hello all, it's Amy here this beautiful September day, to share another layout I have created as a guest designer.

I
really enjoyed something new, by using the dark paper for this project.
It added a lot of contrast to everything, and made the mediums pop off
of the page with color and texture.

I did a bit of stamping before
using the clock chipboard as an embellishment. I stamped using the
Ayeeda Paint in white, just smoothed on the back with my fingers. I
liked how it ghosted the image on the dark background.

The
splashes of paint and ink really draw the eye with their sheen and
shimmer. Adding movement with the clocks, twine and embellishments made
this a project I really had a fun time creating.

I hope you liked my project today, and that you were inspired to create!

September has always been a bittersweet month for me. Sweet because the husband and me got married in this month, bitter because this is also the month where my little baby of 9 years died of a stomach infection and left us. He's a very sweet Golden Retriever with the most amazing temperament and he passed on just a couple of months after my eldest was born. So I'm dedicating today's post to him.

I've used 13arts' Timeless collection here, as well as Ayeeda Pearl and Chalk mists to add color onto the project.

Some details:

Flowers and a piece of chipboard altered with Ayeeda Pearl Mist in Brown, and using "Perfect Moment" as my background paper.

The other part of my floral cluster.

Stickers and circles which I punched out from "Today, Tomorrow, Always".

Stenciled with some black paste using the Mask - Flying Shapes and some random stamping in the background.
